Classic Plus Style – PeopleSoft Classic Plus has replaced the traditional PeopleSoft Classic User Interface as the standard user interface for PeopleSoft applications. PeopleSoft Fluid, introduced in PeopleTools 8.54, has co-existed with the traditional classic user interface in all PeopleSoft applications and will continue to do so. The introduction of Classic Plus is a step toward unifying the look of all pages, the "classic plus" feature allows reworked classic components to be displayed in a Fluid-like manner. Classic Plus basically serves to standardize the look and feel of Classic and Fluid PeopleSoft pages from a styling point of view. Starting with PeopleTools 8.56 and HCM PUM Image 25, the pages contained within certain PeopleTools classic components have been reworked and are now delivered with fluid-like styling which is also referred to as “classic plus” styling. When the “Fluid like theme for Classic” theme type has been enabled on the Branding System Options page, the pages in these components will be displayed with fluid-like styling rather than as standard classic pages. In addition, the pages in any components delivered with your PeopleSoft applications that have also been reworked will be displayed with fluid-like styling. When any other theme type is selected on the Branding System Options page, these classic pages are rendered like other standard classic pages and components. www.ibt.com.au Enhanced Fluid Capacities in latest PeopleTools version IBT Oracle PeopleSoft Suite 406 84 Pitt St Sydney NSW 2000 www.ibt.com.au

To prepare a component for classic plus styling, PeopleTools and PeopleSoft application development teams have reworked some of the page controls on each of the pages within the component. Then, the teams have set the Apply Fluid like theme for Classic check box on the Style tab of the Component Properties dialog box. A component can also be configured with the Fluid like theme for Classic on the Component Branding page. Despite this setting, other component and page properties remain set as standard classic components and pages.

In cases where Classic Plus is not enabled on a desired component, or alternatively where Classic Plus is enabled as delivered but we may want to disable it on a certain component, we will need to enable it manually via a Component property (Classic Plus Theme Selection). Some of the new peoplecode built-in functions introduced in the latest PeopleTools version that cater to classic plus styling are as follows:
ConfigureClassicPlusComponent
ConfigureClassicPlusForWC
To enable Classic Plus we can simply use the function ConfigureClassicPlusComponent in conjunction with Event Mapping and enable/disable Classic Plus without incurring any customisations.
The below snippet of code can be implemented in an application package which can be attached to a service and then tagged to the content reference of the component for which we want to enable Classic Plus:
